Home My WebLink About85 California Drive - Staff Report (2)� Item No. 9c Environmental Scoping PROJECT LOCATION 85 California Drive City of Burlingame Item No. 9c Environmenfal Scoping, Rezoning, General Plan Amendment, Lot Merger Environmental Scoping and Lot Line Adjustment and Commercial Design Review Address: 85 California Drive Meeting Date: February 22, 2016 Request: Application for Environmental Scoping, Rezoning, General Plan Amendment, Lot Merger and Lot Line Adjustment and Commercial Design Review for a new automobile service facility at an existing automobile dealership. Applicant: Kent Putnam APN: 029-242-020,-030,-040,-050 & portion of -230 Designer: Alan Cross, Proto Inc. Lot Area: 24,820 SF (0.57 acres) combined Property Owner: Kent Putnam General Plan: Commercial Uses: Service & Special Sales Zoning: CAR and R-4 Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan: California Drive Mixed Use District & R-4 Incentive District Adjacent Development: Automobile sales and service and multifamily residential. Environmental Scoping: Environmental review is required for this project because it includes a Rezoning and General Plan Amendment of a portion of a parcel, and therefore does not qualify for an exemption. As a part of preparing the initial study for the environmental document for this project, staff is requesting that the Planning Commission comment on any potential environmental effects which it feels should be investigated. Since the proposed new automobile service facility is less than 10,000 SF in area it qualifies for a CEQA exemption, therefore the comments and discussion on the environmental review should be limited to the proposed Rezoning and General Plan Amendment. The issues identified by the Commission will be incorporated into the initial study for the project. The standard list of items investigated in an initial study is attached for reference. At this time, staff notes that based on preliminary analysis, it appears that the type of CEQA document required will be a Negative Declaration. However, the type of CEQA document will be finalized during the environmental review process. History: On May 11, 2009 the Planning Commission approved an application for Commercial Design Review for fa�ade changes to the existing Subaru showroom (see attached May 11, 2009 Planning Commission Minutes). The project was completed in December, 2010. Project Summary: The project site is located at the southwest corner of California Drive and Bayswater Avenue. The project site consists of five separate parcels; four parcels and a portion of a fifth parcel would be combined into one lot for the proposed project (see attached diagram). The remaining parcel at the corner of Bayswater Avenue and Highland Avenue would continue to be used for storing new vehicle inventory. The proposed Iot combination requires applications for Rezoning a portion of a parcel from R-4 (high density multifamily residential) to CAR (California Drive Auto Row) and a General Plan Amendment (from R-4 Incentive District to California Drive Mixed Use District). The site is surrounded by automobile sales and service facilities; there is an existing two-story multifamily residential building to the south. The project site currently contains a one-story Subaru showroom building, a one-story Subaru automobile service facility, a Hertz automobile rental office located in the service facility building and automobile storage for Subaru and Hertz on a paved parking area. The proposal includes demolishing a small office at the rear of the existing showroom building, the existing service facility and Hertz rental office and building a new, 9,634 SF automobile service facility for Subaru. The new service facility would consist of 16 service bays, parts and tool rooms, a service writer office and customer Environmental Scoping, Rezoning, General Plan Amendment, Lot Merger and 85 California Drive Commercial Design Review lounge. The front of the lot would contain an outdoor vehicle display area and customer/employee parking. During preliminary review Planning staff identified the following applications required for this project: • Environmental Scoping for Rezoning and General Plan Amendment of a portion of a site; • Rezoning of a portion of a site from R-4 (high density multifamily residential) to CAR (California Drive Auto Row); ■ General Plan Amendment of a portion of a site from R-4 Incentive District to California Drive Mixed Use District; ■ Lot Merger to combine four existing parcels into one parcel (portions of Lots 5 and 6, Block 13) and Lot Line Adjustment; and • Commercial Design Review for a new automobile service facility at an existing automobile dealership. Building Design: The existing Subaru showroom building to be retained contains stucco walls, a slate tile clad pilaster, an aluminum anodized storefront system, aluminum composite paneling and painted steel and aluminum trim across the upper portion of the building. The proposed new automobile service facility requires an application for Commercial Design Review and is subject to Section 5.0 - Design & Character of the Downtown Specific Plan (see attached). The proposed service facility building contains prefinished horizontal metal and aluminum composite panel siding, painted steel and aluminum trim and an aluminum anodized storefront system. Please refer to the proposed building elevations (sheet A.301) provided by the designer. As measured from the average top of curb level along California Drive, the proposed building measures 24'-2" in height and therefore is in compliance with building height regulations (55'-0" maximum allowed; Conditional Use Permit required for any building exceeding 35'-0"). The proposed ground floor ceiling height is 18'-10" where 15'-0" is the minimum required. Off-Street Parking: Off-street parking is required for the existing automobile sales showroom and the proposed automobile service facility. Based on the existing automobile showroom (1,539 SF @ 1:600 SF parking ratio) and proposed automobile service facility (8,725 SF @ 1:800 SF parking ratio), a total of 14 off-street parking spaces are required. The proposal complies with the off-street parking requirement by providing a total of 14 parking spaces at the front of the site. The front of the site would also contain a vehicle display area. Customers will enter the facility off Bayswater Avenue and drive into one of two service drive lanes until greeted by a service writer. The vehicles would then be driven to the service facility for servicing. Two new curb cuts will be installed along Bayswater Avenue for the new service facility. The existing curb cut along BayswaterAvenue near the corner will be reduced in width. Street Trees: There are no street trees currently existing along California Drive in front of the project property. As required by the Parks Division, two new 24-inch box street trees (Red Spire) will be planted along California Drive. There are seven existing street trees along Bayswater Avenue in front of the project property. Three of the seven street trees will be removed. The remaining four street trees will be replaced with four Gingko biloba street trees.

These requirements are in the San Francisco Bay Region Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP)� and are described below. What Is an Impervious Surf�ce? Ri«�off is direct�cl �o Icindscuping. An impervious surface is a surface covering or pavement of a developed parcel of land that prevents the land's natural ability to absorb and infiltrate rainfall. Impervious surfaces include, but are not limited to: rooftops, walkways, patios, driveways, parking lots, storage areas, impervious concrete and asphalt, and any other continuous watertight pavement or covering. Does Pervious Paving Count as Impervious Surface? Pervious paving, including pavers with renneable openings and seams, is not considered impervious if it is underlain with pervious soil or pervious storage material, such as a gravel layer that is sized to hold 80 percent of the average annual runoff. (This is the volume of stormwater runoff specified in Provision C.3.d of the MRP.) Guidance for calculating this amount of runoff is provided in Section 5.1 of the C.3 Technical Guidance. See "For More Information", below, for information on downloading. What Are the New Requirements? Beginning December l, 2012, applicable projects must incorporate one ofthe follo�vin� site desi�n measures: • rf x . , .�;, Direct roof runoff into cisterns or rain barrels for use. �x,� ;�. � � ^� ■ Direct roof runoff onto vegetated areas. � ,. n. ., ),i� �."-` ?
